Restaurants near La Casa del Zorro Resort

Looking for a high grade happy hour?? Try Eddie V's! Word of mouth lead us here for the first time, and since they filled up on a Tuesday night, it was clear that their reputation was sterling. It was much better than we had hoped. The happy hour menu is really impressive and it's like having a tasting sampler of some of the restaurant's best dishes. They offer salads, soups, seafood, and quality meats all in dishes for two....like two filet sliders, two oysters Rockefeller, etc. We started with the jumbo crab cake and it was the largest and finest crab cake we have ever had anywhere! No fillers....just a huge amount of fresh crab meat with a delicious sauce built in. One order feeds two, unless you just can't help yourself. Then we had African lobster bites that were crunchy on the outside and moist and tender on the inside; five of them were served like popsicles and we asked for melted butter to go with them (do that!). Fantastic! The next dish we don't recommend as strongly: two oysters prepared Rockefeller style, but the oysters were much too small to be satisfying and they were covered with an overbearing crunchy panko covering which overwhelmed what should have been the oyster flavor. Next came filet sliders, medium rare and absolutely delicious...excellent beef and super tender. Then the big surprise were lamb "popsicles". But these were really much more, a full one-bone lamb chop, with excuisite flavor. Wow! Dessert was excellent also, a Meyer Lemon Torte with toasted meringue and fresh fruit accents. Rich, creamy, but not overbearing. Service was exceptional: thank you so much Priscilla! And the General Manager, Rudy, came by to have a nice chat about this restaurant as well as their place in La Hoya, Southern California. What a great find! The great food and drinks were not inexpensive but well worth the cost. And the atmosphere is very classy. Enjoy!

Best restaurant in the Valley. Great food incredible atmosphere amazing music, fabulous staff!!!

We really enjoy Bar Cecil. Great atmosphere with beautiful bar and retro artwork. Good Old Fashioneds to start, anddelicious rolls Parker House style. I enjoyed a skirt steak- frittes, and the frittes were perfect. My wife ordered a pasta with too much pepper for her taste, and our server Eric had it remade with minimal pepper in a few minutes. We’ll be back every time we’re in town .

Lavender is now our favorite restaurant in the Palm Springs/Desert area. Lots of gluten free options food was delicious, service impressive. The patio was warm, cozy, inviting. We had a perfect evening and I’ve already made another reservation You simply must go!

Limited menu Monday - Wednesday, but the food that was available was very good. Service was good although it took a long time to get my cocktail. There was no bartender so the service staff had to make my drink.
